Logan walked into the kitchen, scratching his chin as he looked through the fridge. Lady Luck seemed to be on his side for once. Most of a roast chicken and four beers sat inside. Nuking the bird in the microwave, he popped open a beer and sat down at the table to enjoy it.

Kari walked into the kitchen to see her boy friend raiding the kitchen. "Chicken, and... Beer? Really honey? I know you don't get fat or even age, or for that matter die from liver deseases, I still think you're taking this a bit too far here." She spoke rather awkwardly she knew trying to part her lover from his beer would be impossible but it was worth the try.
She let out a bit of a sigh before scratching her head, and sitting down next to him at the table. She still wasn't quite over the fact that she was taking Proffessor Xavier's place, leaving that aside, that Jean was also dead. A great man killed beside his first pupil.
All of this started after her brother dissapeared it was too much for any one person to handle. But at least the students took the loss pretty well. Most of them never spent much time with him. But Kari however was a first generation X-Man she'd gotten to know him very well.

Logan crushed an empty beer can and tossed it expertly behind him, landing it straight in the can. "What's the matter darlin?" he asked gently, looking up at Kari. His sharp senses told him she was troubled, and he had a good idea why. The deaths of Xavier and Jean had been hard on everyone.

"It's just everything that's happened lately, first my brother dissapears to who know's where. Psylocke goes off hunting for him. Then this... Xavier, and Jean. I'm not sure I'm even ready to lead the X-Men, this is just too much. I barely have grip on all this, besides you know how it goes, mutants like him, and us... We dissapear... Then come back like this." She stood up flexed all her muscles and arched her back.
Out sprung large angel wings coated with adomantium the cursed substance that had been the latest trend for all those who posessed healing factors. Her nails extended out to their full length of sixteen inches. They also had been covered by that vile metal. She hoped that her brother wouldn't have to go through the same thing his transformation would be more painful. He had spike that would extend from his arms, and legs, as well his sister's wings, and claws.
"I hope Psylocke finds him quickly." Kari cupped her face in her hands, her unnaturally long life had been full of pain. This would only be one more, she knew he wouldn't die unless maybe they cut off his head. But the memories of getting used to her new claws, and wings. The only good thing was that it was what brought her together with the man known as Wolverine.

Logan gently pushed Kari back into her seat. He threw a comforting arm around her, hoping to cheer his lady up. He hated seeing her sad. "I think Chuck would be proud of you, Kari. If anyone could do as good a job leadin' the X-men as he did, it'd be you."

"You really thinks so?" She asked letting herself fall back in his embrace. "I suppose maybe I would be the best example of a leader we have right now, but I'm not sure that power, and charisma is all we need." She spoke, letting her deep humility come through. "But thanks baby, I don't know what I would've done without you."

Logan grinned and replied, "Neither do I, darlin, neither do I." To show just how much he cared, he offered Kari one of his beers and some chicken. "You've got charisma and power in spades, Kari, but you've also got another thing that makes you wonderful, and that's a kind heart."

Honestly Kari had never drank before, but she figured that she might as well give it a try. She took a small sip from the can. Shortly after she grimmaced a bit before looking up into Logan's eyes. "I don't know how you can stand this. I think from now on I'll stick to my Japanese Tea." She spoke gently before she gouged a piece of chicken, then brought it up into her mouth using a single tallon. "To say the least the chicken is good."

"Yeah, a little dry though" Logan replied, giving his food a brief scowl, before continuing eating it. He picked up one of the remaining beers and neatly sliced off the top with a claw. He retracted the deadly blade and took a drink. "The Japanese do have good tea" he added, "Can't see how they can stand tofu though. It's like eating pencil eraser."

"That's agreable, I've never been a big fan of sushi either. But oh, those noodles with Teriyaki Chicken, now that is real food." He tone changed to one of remeniscing, which lead to remembering, leading back to her brother. But she shook off the thoughts he was probably fine, there was little anyone could do to actually take away his life. With this in mind Kari leaned up against her love allowing the warmth of his body to give her comfort.

Logan pushed his plate and wrapped his arm around Kari, giving his girl a whiskery kiss on the cheek. "How 'bout when we get hitched, we have our honeymoon in Japan?"

"Logan... That'd be lovely, but you really want to get married to me? I mean the X-Men provide us with protection, but we're both wanted by just about every private or government organization that deals with 'Black Folder' (Or highly classified) Opporations. You know I'd love to but well, so long as you're up to taking that risk." She spoke with both, shock and catuion in her tone.

"We can wait, or just stay as we are" Logan replied, "As for all the Black Folder weeds that are after us...we can take 'em if they try anything. We are X-men after all." He tossed his empty beer can into the air and sliced it into several pieces.

"Well I'm all for marrying you, I just don't know how long it'll actually be untill we actually can." Truthfully there was no one other than Wolverine she'd been interested in for over one hundred years. It was the risk she worreid about but then again Logan was right, they were X-Men, and they didn't have to face their problems alone. They had each other, and their students.
Kari was able to catch all the pieces of bear can then throw them like shurikans behind her toward the trash can, then stretch out her hand. He skin changed blue with the elegant purple designs that decorated her mutated form. Her wings came out of her back as well while her eyes glowed bright blue. All at once a ball of light appeared in her hand then shot out vaporizing the remains of the can just as the pieces flew over the trash can.

"Darlin, remind me never to get on your bad side" Logan said, watching Kari's impressive skills at work. He propped his fist under his chin and added, "What do you want to do now?"
